ATP is rightly referred to as a universal energy currency because changing ATP to ADP results in a fairly substantial free energy loss, which can be used to drive energetically unfavorable processes elsewhere. This is no different fundamentally from what happens in a test tube on the lab bench ...
Give three examples of how ATP is used in an organism. How do bacterial cells make ATP? What is chemiosmosis and how does it generate ATP? Explain the ATP cycle. Explain how cellular respiration produces ATP from molecules with high potential energy, such as glucose. ...
What is the net ATP molecules gain, when 4 molecules of glucose undergo anaerobic respiration in plants? What kind of energy does ATP (the energy currency of the cell) store? ATP is a produced in the what and used how within the cell? 1. mitochondria; used as an...
How is ADP converted into ATP?Hint:Adenosine diphosphate and adenosine triphosphate are chemical compounds found in all plant and animal cells and are known as nucleotides. The addition of a high-energy phosphate group to ADP converts it to ATP for energy storage.Complete solution:The conversion ...
As you work out, your body uses three different systems, which take turns to provide energy to your muscle cells by synthesizing adenosine triphosphate (ATP). So, depending on what you are doing and for how long, you will be using a different energy system to achieve it. If you are very...
These systems are named for the energy they provide, such as: Aerobic Running Energy This is the energy your body uses to keep going on an endurance run. It primarily comes from breaking down glucose, but the aerobic system can also use fat to create adenosine triphosphate (ATP) energy. Th...
Alcohol can also damage mitochondria, which are responsible for producing the ATP that gives us energy. This may contribute to the fatigue, weakness, and mood disturbances experienced during a hangover. Meanwhile, alcohol stimulates the immune system, leading to inflammation that can damage cells with...
This pump uses energy (ATP) to pump sodium ions from the inside to the outside and potassium ions from the outside to the inside. Because sodium and potassium ions are positively charged, they carry tiny electrical currents when they move across the membrane. If sufficient numbers move across...
Bacterial chemotaxis requires bidirectional flagellar rotation at different rates. Rotation is driven by a flagellar motor, which is a supercomplex containing multiple rings. Architectural uncertainty regarding the cytoplasmic C-ring, or ‘switch’, limi
